Default Front number plate solution.

I need a number plate solution to fix a front number plate onto my car. But as you can see the bumper doesn't seem like it was designed for a plate at all. And I don't want to use a sticker. Where would it's plate have been in Japan, because it's a factory stock bumper.

Can I have one of those little ones hanging down from the top bar on the bumper because it's an import?

I'm thinking of having a not so legal Japanese size plate because there's no room for a European plate. And thinking of having it pressed metal and in green font colour like the jap ones.

I mean I'm running no plate at the moment and police havn't stopped me so surely any plate is better than no plate.

Done some research. I wont get away with a different colour than black but pressed metal plates ARE legal on the road. They just have to have to be reflective, and most places that make them do use reflective paint.
